Meelick, Whitegate, Co. Clare. Eircode: V94 KT3R Traditional style farmhouse set 3.7 acres of land and just 600m from the shores of Lough Derg. Brian McMahon & Daughters and Savills Ireland Ltd are delighted to offer for sale this classic two-storey, three-bay farmhouse dating from the 1930's. The house is beautifully positioned in a private and peaceful location, surrounded by mature trees, hedgerows, and with wonderful countryside views. Although in need of refurbishment it offers a unique chance to create a beautiful home in this picturesque country setting. The accommodation includes an entrance hall which connects to both a dining room and living room at the front of the house and all part of the original footprint. An extension was added in c. 2010 with a kitchen/dining area, en-suite bedroom and utility to the rear. Upstairs, the space has been partially stripped back to its original framework and is now ready for renovation. The layout lends itself to creating 3/4 bedrooms (subject to renovation works). To the rear of the house is a courtyard with traditional outbuildings, ideal for general storage along with a barn. A full layout of the accommodation is shown on the adjoining floorplans.
